The Army Is Dropping A Key Requirement For Enlistment To Cover Horrible Recruiting Numbers!

 The Army Is Dropping A Key Requirement For Enlistment To Cover Horrible Recruiting Numbers!

The US Army no longer requires a high school diploma as the military faces unprecedented challenges under Joe Biden.

As the Armed Forces struggle through what some officials are calling the “most difficult recruiting year ever,” the US Military is chopping down the standards that are used to find and train new recruits after completely bowing to woke ideology and gutting itself with unconstitutional mandates that forced an experimental and dangerous vaccine.

In a desperate attempt to attract new recruits, the US Army has now dropped its requirement that recruits have a high school diploma or a G.E.D. degree, in addition to lowering almost every single physical qualification for new recruits to pass their initial training.

In a statement released by the US Army on Thursday, new recruits will only need to be 18 years old or older and get a score of 50 on the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) test to qualify for service. The service blamed young Americans’ “lack of competence and drive” for the difficulties it has had recruiting them into all branches of the armed forces.

Just 40% of the Army’s recruitment target for the fiscal year that ends in October has been met as of this writing. This is comparable to the other six branches, all of which are anticipated to fall short of their hiring targets in 2022.

In a report by Military.com:

“The Army and its sister services have scrambled this year, offering increasingly generous benefits and policy tweaks in an effort to improve recruiting numbers. The Army has hit 40% of its recruiting goals this year, with the struggle to fill the ranks seemingly so grim the Defense Department reduced its planned total force size because prior recruiting goals were out of reach.”

Additionally, the Army relaxed regulations around placement, size, and the number of tattoos recruits may have.

“This directive announces a change in policy for the allowable placement of tattoos for currently serving Soldiers and applicants for enlistment or appointment. Changes to the Army tattoo policy allow individuals who meet all other qualifications for appointment or enlistment the opportunity to serve,” read the memo regarding the rule change.

“Social norms, people are getting more tattoos,” Sargent Major Ashleigh Sykes said Thursday. “It doesn’t stop readiness if someone has a tattoo on the back of their neck.”

“They also support the Army’s People Strategy, our number one priority, by offering Soldiers options for appearance that take into account professional appearance and good order and discipline,” the publication added.

According to a military official who talked with NBC, Especially in the wake of COVID-19, the situation has reportedly reached “crisis” levels.

One senior defense official involved in recruiting and personnel issues said, according to the NBC report:

“This recruiting crisis is like a slow-moving wave coming at us. As the military has gotten smaller and the public have gotten less and less familiar with those in uniform, it has grown. And COVID accelerated it. As the military has gotten smaller and the public have gotten less and less familiar with those in uniform, it has grown. And Covid accelerated it.”

Unfortunately, under the corrupt leadership of Joe Biden and the America-hating swamp, the US Military is quickly becoming a serious problem. The days of responsibility and standards that made our military the greatest force ever to grace the earth are long gone. You no longer even need basic education to pledge your allegiance to the woke ideology.

Take a look at the US Navy’s latest training video for its Sailors… and it’s happening across the board with Biden as the ‘Commander in Chief.’ The Armed Forces are looking for previously unqualified recruits who will be more willing to comply with the US military’s arbitrary demands (such as Covid vaccine mandates) and woke standards.

We are now witnessing the controlled demolition of America by the Biden regime, which arguably came to power illegitimately through a rigged election.
